Urgent Help To Ukraine

Hello friends!

My name is Oksana Kramer and I am Ukrainian. In the last 10 years, I’ve been living in the United States, in Virginia. My family lives in Ukraine.

On February 24th, 2022, Russian Federation started a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, destroying entire cities and villages and killing civilians: women, children, and the elderly. Whole regions in the East and South of Ukraine became zones of active military invasion, where living was no longer possible. Civilians (primarily women with children and the elderly) must resettle in Ukraine's central and western regions closer to the border with Poland. In most cases, people fleeing the realities of war have only a few hours to pack their belongings and have to leave everything behind and run with only documents and a few essential things.

The administrations of the cities and villages where refugees are resettled had turned into points of assistance for people who fled the war regions. People turn to administrations for clothing, hygiene products, medicines, and food. I know volunteers in the Zhytomyr region of Ukraine who help the local village council and provide everything they need.

In order to help them, I raise money for:

• Purchase items from the list below

• Shipping cost to send everything to Ukraine (0.99 cents per pound)

• Shipping boxes

List of items to be sent:

• First aid kits

• Over-the-counter medication (pain, cold, aspirin, antiseptics)

• Tonometers

• Thermometers

• Baby food, formula and diapers

• Hygiene products (women’s products, adult diapers, toothpaste, toothbrushes, etc.)

• Winter only!!! clothing and footwear for men/women/children (especially children 10-16 years old) used in good condition

• Thermal underwear

• Underwear and socks (must be new)

• Towels and bedding sheets

• Sleeping bags and blankets

• Candles

If you have the opportunity to buy the items from the list yourself or have the clothing and shoes you want to donate, please contact me at [phone redacted], and we will agree on a convenient place to meet/ where to bring the things.

I am fully accountable for handling the funds and will publish all the receipts that show how every penny will be spent.

Thank you very much for your support! Ukrainian people need all of us now.

Slava Ukraini!!!
